Lethal force is the amount of force you would have to use in order to kill someone with the object and of that object with a certain amount of force by humans can kill. Non lethal force is if the object can’t kill no matter how hard humans use it and non lethal force is when you use a force that can seriously injure but does not kill based on straight impact
